    I will admit that I am entertained either way. When the team is bad and stocked with young projects, I enjoy watching and evaluating them and tracking their development. And I go to a lot more games because good seats are cheap. When the team is good....self explanatory.

    The Crabbe TPE doesn't expire until 7/25, however, I believe that starting July 1 2018-19 salaries go into effect. I'm not 100% sure on this, but if so, it would mean guys like Eric Gordon, whose 2017-18 salary just fits under the Crabbe TPE (+$100k) would no longer fit under the Crabbe TPE.

    Here's a summary of our exceptions:

    Exceptions
    • Trade Exception (Tim Quarterman, expiring 6/28/18) ā€” $543,471
    • Trade Exception (Allen Crabbe, expiring 7/25/18) ā€” $12,969,502
    • Trade Exception (Noah Vonleh, expiring 2/8/19) ā€” $3,505,233
    • Taxpayer Mid-Level Exception: $5,291,918
    The Quarterman one is useless and will expire. If we fon't us ethe Vonleh TPE now, it could come into play at the trade deadline in February.

    I don't want to trade CJ but this deal is enticing.

    But if CJ was traded for 4, who would they want? Doncic, Bamba or Bridges?

    Or Jackson and let Nurkic go? I guess same if you do Bamba.

    Collins, Jackson, Harkless, Baldwin, Dame could be fun to watch.

    Dame, Baldwin, Doncic, Collins, Nurkic?

    I like the Jackson lineup better.

    Crazy position to be in...

    I'd really sell out and try to sign and trade Nurk.

    I REALLY like Mo Bamba...

    I think he's gonna be the best player in this draft.

    I don't care what position Collins plays, but wouldn't mind having someone play next to him who can also guard out to the three point line. Jackson seems like he could. Not sure Bamba can do that, but you also can't teach an 8' wing span.

    This team has already made the 2nd round... without Collins and Nurk.

    I wouldn't either, but there are folks that would make some form of a deal around CJ and Love (I would NOT, but I have no doubts there are folks that would). But Dame is just preposterous.

    LOL. Dame is not getting traded unless he asks for one.

    Me either. Though, if it's Love and 8 in some fashion for CJ and 24...

    I like the value of getting to 8. I just don't like Love on our team. In a "positionless" NBA, where you want guys who can switch and rotate, etc. moving CJ for a big seems like an odd move. Especially when you have Nurk, Collins, and Aminu.
